1992 F-250 4x4 Build Thread

got more ideas for bumpers, this one is awesome, its on one of our company rigs




However, I don't like how far it sticks out to the front.


So I may copy the design but pull it in closer to the grille.

Truck is a 95 F-250HD with a 351W, and E4OD. Add-a-leaf in the front and 35" Goodyear Wrangler MTRs

 

Not a bad looking bumper. Defiantly needs to be closer to the grill. You planning on lighting it up like the explorer?

 

My dad had that exact bumper on his old 97 250 7.3. Was badass how you have enough room to stand on the bumper that's just how it's supposed to sit though, hey that thing will FUGG up some deer haha

 

Yep standing on that platform when work
under the hood is needed.
That deer mauler bumper would need small 1"dia x 3" - 4"
long round bar welded all over the main round bumper tube, make
it like a yard aerator to catch the deer for transportation
to ya skinning/processing area.

 

Thats the plan. Probably the same 100W spots but set in the bumper like evan's, and some rigid fogs. I like the idea of a light bar, but I don't have that kinda cash.

Yeah, and keep my truck from getting fugged up too. Keeps moron drivers at bay too, when I had my explorer, people got the hell out of my way.

Hmmm, I like it, though itd be my luck I'd catch a 'hood rat on it.

 

scored this off fleabay for 14 bucks.


dude had a stock image of a D-60 cover as the main pic, so everyone looked over it, but the second, tiny pic was of this. These sell for 175-250 new.

 

new starter wiring:




had to reduce the diameter from 1/2 to 3/8s, so instead of stacking washers, I soldered brass washers to the lugs.

 

Isn't that just a ranchhand bumper?

 

Looks great on the wiring and
a good idea soldering the washer.

 

thanks man,

its 2/0 welding cable, the truck starts sooooo much faster now.

Stock positive is a 1/0 cable from battery to battery and a 2/0 from battery to starter. Now 2/0 throughout.

Power wire from battery to solenoid is a #10 factory, now have #4.

Ground wires are 1/0 factory, now 2/0.

Chassis grounds are #8 factory, now #4.

So serious upgrades thoughout, and I also have military type terminals, so I can add any kinda wiring I want just by unbolting the terminals.
